/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

Call me crazy, but I actually love that most of these cosplays suck. Cosplay back in the 90s had very little to do with any sort of elitism, nobody cared if you were "good" or "accurate" or not, they just wanted to dress up to show their fan spirit and everyone else loved it because OMG ITS THAT CHARACTER I LOVE THIS IS THE HAPPIEST DAY OF MY LIFE etc. Back then people actually loved anime and took pride in being an otaku because it was something that was theirs and few others knew about it. It was truly the happy times of conventions.

Nowadays that's all gone. People just cosplay to try to show off and turn the con into their personal fashion show so they can garner photos, followers and facebook likes. Costumes have gotten better, but the spirit is gone.

In any case, have some classic Yaya.

Because Yaya/one of Yaya's supporters wants to promote her.

Not like Yaya was exactly doing great cosplays when SHE first started out, anyway.
